The Norman Conquest The aims of this lesson are to understand what the crusades were about, the significance of Jerusalem and the Holy Land and why medieval Europe answered the call of the Pope to fight there. There is some context given to the Holy Land at the start of the lesson, with some analysis of the Holy sites in Jerusalem and their significance as well as a map showing the journey of the crusaders. Students are given a character card at the start of the lesson and discover the reasons why they abd others embarked on a ‘religious’ crusade. They will plot what happens to their character throughout the lesson and learn the final consequences of their chosen actions. There are a number of differentiated learning tasks to complete, including analysis of sources and text as well as video footage, questions and plenaries to complete. This is an engaging, challenging and interactive lesson which requires students to think independently and justify their choices as well as considering the morality, the significance and impact of all five crusades of Medieval Europe. The lesson is enquiry based with a key question using a lightbulb posed at the start of the lesson and revisited at the end using a rate ‘o’ meter to show the progress of learning. The resource is differentiated and gives suggested teaching strategies. It comes in PowerPoint format which can be amended and changed to suit.
